De-scaling is complete.
Please note:
• If the de-scaling cycle is not completed correctly (e.g. no
electricity) we recommend repeating the cycle;
• After de-scaling, it is normal for the grounds container (A4)
to contain water.
• If the water tank has not been filled to the max level, at the
end of de-scaling, the appliance requests a third rinse to
guarantee that the de-scaler solution has been complete-
ly eliminated from the machine's internal circuits. Before
starting rinsing, remember to empty the drip tray;
• The appliance may request de-scaling cycles at very short
intervals. This is normal and due to the appliance’s ad-
vanced control system
PROGRAMMING WATER HARDNESS
The DESCALING NEEDED - PRESS OK TO START (~45 min)
message is displayed after a period of time established according
to water hardness.
The appliance default is pre-set in manufacturing at "level 4"
hardness. The machine can also be programmed according to
the hardness of the mains water in the various regions so that
the machine needs to be de-scaled less often.
Measuring water hardness
1. Remove the "Total hardness test" indicator paper (C1) pro-
vided from its packaging, attached to the instructions.
2. Immerse the paper completely in a glass of water for about
one second.
3. Remove the paper from the water and shake lightly. After
about a minute, 1, 2, 3, or 4 red squares form, depending on
the hardness of the water. Each square corresponds to one
level.
soft water - level. 1
slightly hard water - level. 2
hard water - level. 3
very hard water - level. 4
